Developed in the 1920’s by the legendary physical trainer, Joseph H. Pilates, the Pilates method is a set of principles and movements designed to dramatically improve strength, mobility, stability, posture, and coordination. Pilates combines awareness of the spine, abdominals combined with proper breathing, mobility, stability,strength, and flexibility training to achieve  longer, stronger muscles without building bulk.

Pilates is tailored for you with modifications for each body and involves comprehensive exercise routines. You will be taken through a series of exercises and movements with an emphasis on your core muscles – abdomen, back and buttocks in each movement incorporating breath. Getting in touch and feeling the muscle or joint you’re exercising is very important – your body will be awakened into new awareness.

In addition to private and semi-private sessions, pre and post-pregnancy sessions, and mat work classes, see below for venues where Sandy runs her regular group classes. These one-hour classes incorporate all the principles and movements of the Pilates workout in a group atmosphere at an affordable price for you and friends to gather and grow.
